The way I have it set up so far is that long time posters will carry more weight than newbie posters and you cannot multi-hit a poster. You have to have, at this point, 20 other poster hits before you can hit a poster for a 2nd time and I can change that to whatever I want.
Seriously, you mean I have to slam 20 innocent posters before I can slam one who deserves it? Um.... not picking a fight here but, right now we only HAVE about 20 active posters... regardless of what the stats say. And so, if TWO of them deserve slamming, I can't reach 20 slams, because I can't slam the other innocent ones TWICE until I slam 20 MORE?? Okay, well.... I guess we could dredge up old posts and slam those who aren't HERE anymore. Sorry, but either lower the number dramatically, or this won't work.
So there's no worries about getting gang-banged by anyone and suddenly ending up with a bad rep. And even if the rep is bad, it'll still be part of the funny pages.
I guess my biggest reason for considering it is just to liven things up a bit and take advantage of some of the bells and whistles that v-bulletin has. I added the smilies last night, which colors the board a bit more. If I do this, it'll be for the same reason...fun. In the end, this is still just a messageboard and should be just that...fun.
Deal a hand! Let's play it out! Like you said, you can BAN it if you don't like the hand you get! Oops.... I mean.... if you don't like how it works out! :smokin:

Once the nestaligia of it wears off it will be just one more over looked visual aid. IMHO. whatever that is worth, less then 2 cents I suppose.

There's a little scale up in the right hand corner of a post. Click on that to add or subtract reputation points for a poster.
The rep is seen by little green or red balls up on the right hand side of your post. If you're in the green, you're positive. If you're in the red, you're negative. If you mouse over those little balls, it'll tell you what the rep level is associated with. I took the liberty of inputing a few reps just to see what it looked like. Hobo, I set yours to -500. You're OK with that, right? Everyone is weighted according to things like positive reputation, number of posts, length of time as a member on the board, etc. Couple of things. 1. A poster has to have 50 posts before they can hit someone's reputation, either positive or negative. 2. You can give 10 reputation hits in 24 hours. 3. You have to hit other people 10 times before you can hit the same person again. So technically, you can hit the same person once a day. We do reserve the right to shut down the reputation thing at any time and I will probably tweak the numbers as time goes by. At this point, we're just testing out whether it's going to be a good addition to the board or not. Play with it all you want right now and let me know what you think.

To clarify the weight comment, that means that posters that have been here a while, have good reputations, have a lot of posts, etc...their reputation clicks are worth more.
Hobo, I'll change yours back, but before I do, do me a favor first. There is a negative limit before your clicks don't register. Do me a favor and rate someone and let me know if it gives you a success message. Also, reputations do not have anything to do with warnings, getting banned, put in time out, or anything like that. It's just a little rating system fun, nothing more.

:rofl: Well, I WAS wondering how I got sent to Hell so quickly! I'll SEE if I can comply with your request in your next post, but I gotta find the "g" spot first! And as long as you're just testing..... don't change mine yet. I'd like to see if anything I or anyone else does can save me from Hell!
